Château Pillebois produces wines from Castillon, in Bordeaux's Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. The winery's Tradition Castillon blends Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot—a composition that reflects the region's classic approach to structure and depth. The Vieilles Vignes Castillon, drawn from older plantings of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, represents a more focused expression of the terroir. Both wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast. Castillon, situated on the right bank of the Dordogne, is known for producing age-worthy reds with the mineral precision and balanced tannins characteristic of the region's limestone-clay soils. The blend-forward style here emphasizes the interplay between Merlot's roundness and Cabernet's structure—a hallmark of serious Bordeaux winemaking.
